You have to walk him, then walk Bradley Jr., to set up force everywhere against a guy who had struggled all game. Not to mention the fact that the outfield was normal depth. Just didn't make sense. Oh well. What is done is done. I will also give credit for the ability to get the bunt down last night. They couldn't do it against Oklahoma, but they got it done last night.
